Prague Botanical Garden, Botanical garden in Troja district, Prague, Czech Republic
The Prague Botanical Garden spreads across a large area with outdoor exhibitions, a diverse plant collection, and the striking Fata Morgana Greenhouse as its centerpiece. The site is organized into different thematic sections featuring succulents, tropical species, and native plants.
The site was founded in 1968 and opened to visitors in 1969. Full public access was achieved in 1992.
The garden serves as a place where visitors move between different plant zones to experience nature within the city. Local schools and families visit regularly to learn about plant diversity and conservation.
The greenhouse operates on fixed hours while outdoor areas vary by season. Visitors should be prepared for paths spread across multiple plant zones throughout the garden.
The Fata Morgana Greenhouse offers a chance to step into tropical conditions that would normally be impossible in this climate. This contrast between the cool European outdoor air and the warm interior creates a striking sensory shift.
